Your heart defiles you; only God in Christ can cleanse you!

Storms don’t hinder worship; they reveal whether our eyes are fixed on Christ, the source of true worship.

The feasts of tyrants produce famine, while Christ provides feasting in the wilderness.

Discipleship to Jesus opens the riches of heaven, while proximity in unbelief breeds contempt.

The kingdom of heaven gathers like a dragnet, a wide net, a future sorting, and a final separation.

The kingdom is valuable because in it the Father gives us His Son. Therefore, to gain the kingdom–even at the loss of all else–is of infinite worth.

The kingdom of heaven begins small and spreads undetected, yet it will expand to have dominion.

The kingdom of heaven advances in the world while good and evil coexist, until Jesus brings final separation at the harvest.

The message of the kingdom of God truly takes root and endures only in hearts that bear fruit.
